Box Office Results: Oblivion is Cruise's Biggest Opening in 7 Years

Coming Soon:
The ComingSoon.net Box Office Report has been updated with studio estimates for the weekend. Click here for the full box office estimates of the top 12 films and then check back on Monday for the final figures based on actual box office.

Tom Cruise was back in a big way this weekend, starring in Joseph (TRON: Legacy) Kosinski's Oblivion (Universal) alongside Morgan Freeman, Olga Kurylenko, Andrea Riseborough, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Melissa Leo.

there are several reasons why it was the most profitable movie in 7 years, firstly, tom made only few films in the span of the last 7 yrs such as knight and day, lion for lambs, valkyris etc are not blockbuster material, only mission impossible 4 is a strong candidate but it suffered from the shortcomings of the previous mission impossible movies. oblivion might be his 2nd best film in 7 years only behind mi4 which should have garnered more money than it made.
